Like I cant even comprehend where i would begin right now
I got a pear mix? Its 9% Pear, 4% Bavarian Cream, 1.5% coconut extra, all from TFA (the flavor / perfumers apprentice). Its great to me, but to other people they wish it was sweeter and fuller. Ive tried adding stuff into it, like 1% marshmallow and 1% sweet cream, but I dont know how to get that full taste that vendors get without just bombing it wtih sweetener. Also that coconut extra is not that good, but the pear seems to mask it well, and I use it since it has more body than capellas sweet coconut and the vapor feels fuller. Anything more than 1.5% though itll taste like a bottle of suntan lotion
I got my "Tigers Blood" flavor, which is just a snowcone flavor everyone and their mother has tried to make and everyone likes a little differently. I like it with 12% TFA Strawberry, 8% Capellas Sweet Watermelon, 0.5% TFA Coconut Extra, 1% Capellas Sweet Coconut. Some people make it with watermelon being the dominant flavor, and prefer LorAnns watermelon which has that Jolly Rancher taste but also has pink food coloring in it, and colorings to me a huge no-no. So you might like it way way more if you used 12% Capellas Sweet watermelon and dropped the strawberry down to 8%, or maybe even blended strawberries like some people do. Turn that 8% total strawberry into 6% TFA Strawberry (ripe) and 2% Capellas Sweet Strawberry. Or maybe youd think Capellas sweet watermelon AND LorAnns taste bad and you prefer TFA Watermelon. Or maybe theyre all shit and you like the italian flavorings by FlavourArt instead.
I got a fairly decent recipe a lot of people on the reddit diy_ejuice sub fell in love with, it was some guys attempt at cloning a real popular juice. 5% LorAnns Banana Cream, 7% TFA Strawberry, 3% TFA Dragonfruit. it doesnt taste exceptional, but you dont get tired of it so ive just been sticking to that for a while.
or Vanilla. I like 8% Capellas Vanilla custard, 5% Capellas French Vanilla, 3% TFA Sweet Cream, 3% TFA Bavarian Cream, 1% Marshmallow. To some people thats way too much flavoring. One of my friends said it smells like a Vanilla scented candle. Another said it was the best thing he ever tasted, some guy who works at a vape shop tried to get me to make it and sell it there lol. But theres diketones in there; they add stuff like Acetyl Propionyl and Acetoin, which can catylyze into Diacetyl under certain conditions. A single cigarette actually contains like a hundred times as much Diacetyl as even a 30ml bottle of ejuice with all the flavorings i listed and more, but those risks are still present and something people have to think about. A lot of people wont touch the custard and cream related flavors I listed off because of the risk of diacetyl, but you simply cant replicate that richness without.
All this stuff is stuff that crossed my mind and gave me a massive headache just earlier lol
